Riders

Hi, I’m Josh Hart. I’m a social entrepreneur and a lover of humanity. I’m the Founder of Operation Elf Box, a nonprofit organization based in Bend, Oregon. Each year we open ‘free toy stores’ throughout the state. Our mission is simple: to create a brighter Christmas for children.

Shoeless Jo – Jo rescued me at the Central Oregon Humane Society. He’s a border collie who just celebrated his 3rd birthday and somehow talks me into taking him on really exciting adventures. He’s full of love. Jo is a seasoned backpacker, and a bike tourist, covering portions of the Pacific Crest Trail and the world famous Route 1, the Pacific Coast Highway and now has crossed the U.S. by bike.
